UWMC culture fest to celebrate diversity from across the globe

The University of Wisconsin Marathon County Multicultural Resource Center is planning a festival that will celebrate the world's diversity with art, music, dance and food.

The Multi-Cultural Festival will be held from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on April 6, held at multiple locations throughout the UWMC campus.

Celebrating in the tradition of Japanese cherry blossom festivals will be the general theme of the event, but the MRC festival will include an African drum and dance troupe, dancers and musicians from the American Indian Resource Center in Wausau, a German Pomeranian dance group, a Chinese dance group and an Irish music trio featuring MRC Director Theodore Ceplina. Food from a variety of ethnic groups will be available and art and other cultural materials will be on display from Yemen, Sierra Leone, Poland, India and Korea.

Admission is $1 to the general public, but free for students and children.
